Speranzoni Sniffs Out Sabishchenko's Bluff to Scoop the Pot
Level 37
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Rostyslav Sabishchenko kicked off the action from under the gun, raising to 1,000,000 with K?Q?. The table folded around to Alberto Speranzoni in the big blind, who found A?4? and opted to defend.
The flop came down A?8?Q?, giving both players a piece of the board. Sabishchenko, holding second pair, took the lead with a bet of 500,000, and Speranzoni, with top pair, quickly called.
Both players checked the 10? on the turn.
On the 2? river, Speranzoni checked again, and Sabishchenko attempted to bluff with a bet of 1,000,000. After some consideration, Speranzoni, confidently saying, "I can beat king-queen," made the call and scooped the pot.
